Spice Devices, a mobile brand owned by TRANSSION Holdings, has launched a new smartphone in India called Spice F311. The Spice F311 is an entry-level smartphone with not-so-intriguing specifications. However, it’s an Android Go smartphone which makes it worthy of taking a look at.
The Spice F311 being an Android Go smartphone runs Android Oreo (Go Edition). For those unaware, the Android Oreo (Go Edition) is a lightweight version of Android which is specially developed to run on entry-level smartphones with weak hardware, like 1 GB or less amount of RAM, and less internal storage.

The Spice F311 sports a 5.45-inch display that has an aspect ratio of 18:9 and a resolution of 960 x 480 pixels. For photography, you get 5 MP camera both on the front and at the back, and, keeping the lights on is a 2400 mAh battery that draws power from a micro USB port.
The Spice F311 comes in three colors – Rose Gold, Black and Phantom Red – and, it also has a fingerprint scanner at the back that can also be used for taking pictures, answering calls and quickly accessing apps. Moreover, the F311 also comes with what’s called Social Share Key that aids in “faster social sharing”.
